I just happen to stumble upon this group. I started this back in the mid 90s. We had to do a call for votes and have people out there vote to allow this group to come into existence.

Heart felt condolences go out to the families, friends and co-worker of the two AW 609 pilots. Any word on what might have gone wrong. I am sure since this was a test flight they worn parachutes, did the problem start at altitude? I seem to remember years ago an Agusta crew bailed out of a...
